CATALYST GC & DEVELOPMENT ABOUT OUR COMPANY

For the past 20 years, Catalyst has been committed to quality and excellence. Our goal has been to put together a team that fits all aspects of construction. From consulting to design-build, we have a qualified team member who fits that role. We are more than just a General Contractor, we care about your project as much as you.

Catalyst is headed by a hands-on contractor who honed his technical skills, mechanical knowledge, and leadership abilities on major projects for top, national construction companies. Effective teamwork is central to customer satisfaction so we stress constant communication among our in-house team, architects, subcontractors, and owners. Catalyst understands the true meaning of the time value of money—your money, so we stick to deadlines and meet construction milestones. We are proud of our track record of completing projects on time, ahead of time, and staying consistently on budget. Our goal is to put your property on line per your most ambitious projections. Catalyst provides an unparalleled advantage to clients; we deliver a rare combination of large-company talent and technical resources with small-company value and individualized service. In every job we do, the client comes first.
